ZTE repeatedly violated the US sanctions against Iran, and lied to the government while in remediation. Now that the US has broken it's international agreement w/Iran & is threatening sanctions against our global partners who were also part of the agreement, the only logical 5d chess move is to get ZTE back in the business of selling security-compromised devices to Americans. Using the Dept of Commerce, paid for by American tax dollars.

I would be shocked if this was a backroom quid pro quo deal with China to expand the Trump brand business interests. Shocked I say.

tl;dr Jobs Jobs Jobs!

Too heavy to transport. Don't get the practical application. Hopefully there is one though! Cool idea, reuse byproduct

This. Set a federal law that is actually drafted by anti-NN folks, masquerade as pro-NN, most states will defer without contest and the whole circlejerk is complete.

"We wanted to do a blockchain technology-related ETF, so not another bitcoin fund but something that takes advantage of the underlying ecosystem. So we developed a methodology in-house which measures seven quantitative factors and we run those factors on a universe of publicly traded [data]."

I trust them, they have quantified a universe after all.

So getting all your email isn't a concern but getting a few minor additional bits of information is? Anyway you can just use their authenticator and print off emergency-use codes, no need to give them additional info.

Run your own mail server if you're that concerned, it's not very difficult. You could even do it in aws quite cheaply; they will setup reverse DNS for a static (elastic) IP if you fill out a form.

If that is too insecure, I suggest writing encrypted letters to folks and making sure they have a decryption pad. One time use, of course.

All new crashes:

[ 22.462856] kernel BUG at /build/linux-J4_1pC/linux-4.4.0/mm/slub.c:3627!
[ 22.462874] invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP

Yay for regressions.

Assuming they're a good company with people you like, you can be nice about it while doing the best thing for yourself.

Don't mention it until you're ready to walk. When you are ready, give something reasonable like a month. Make it clear you're willing to extend that period out if they desire, if they make it worth your while. A guaranteed bonus for staying longer, maybe some guaranteed minimum commit contract hours to help with transition training or something.

You don't owe any employer anything and you've put in your time. If you're ready to walk away don't let your good nature allow people to take advantage of you.

Employees being single points of failure is a business risk issue. It's up to the company to mitigate that risk, not the employees. Our obligation ends at staying professional; keeping documentation current, cross training when required etc.

"Doesn't affect me directly, screw everyone else!"

Love the attitude.

Lineage builds are starting to roll out. Once there's some builds for my device I'll cut over. I've never had any problems.

Stock on my device is terrible cuz Verizon. I just rooted and removed the bloatware, but they clearly were never going to fully patch even stagefright, so went with CM as I did with most of my devices.

Dear proprietary, bloated malware attack vector from hell; foad. No one wants you. Your parents hate you. Your girlfriend became a lesbian after seeing you naked. You are a stinking pustule, a soon to be forgotten constant annoyance with your privacy violations, supercookies, security flaws and general worthlessness. Please take Adobe with you.

I have none.

Also, I disable uPnP and its ilk on my firewall. I have a guest wifi router and keep scrubs off my network.

$5/month unlimited data size (writes).

You can sync files back over or they will actually ship you a HD with your data; if you return the drive you get a refund of the drive cost but you're also free to keep it.

The cost for individual file reads is reasonable too.

No muss no fuss

I agree 100%, but the fanboy "must have the newest version for prestige" types don't care. In fact, the more exclusionary the better for them. Totally absurd.

Those sorts of low-powered laptops are already incredibly cheap and nearly disposable, so why would I want one that requires my phone?

What's going to happen Soon(tm) is your phone will be able to do a decent display projection + keyboard. The whole any-surface desktop idea. + multitouch. Then we'll be talkin'

Right now I'm just looking at getting a cheap chromebook that converts to a table and running android apps on it. Really only useful for me when traveling, so not a high priority.

Everyone who knows anything knows that the community is the value. Get everyone on the internet, value is automatically created.

The only problem is 1 of those billions of people would probably share a song illegally on a p2p network and would owe 75 trillion dollars, leaving us like 68 trillion in the red.
